North Shore Home Under $600K
The beach is just across the street from this three-bedroom, three-bathroom home in Waialua.
It's an all-too-common story these days: House hunters buy at the peak of the market, the home loses much of its value in the declining economy and the owners are stuck with a home that's worth less than what they originally paid. This Waialua, North Shore home is another one of those sad tales: A friend of mine purchased it new in June 2004 for $497,000. He turned around and sold it for $900,000 in late 2005, a pretty nice, though obviously inflated, profit. The current owners have recently listed it again for $599,000—a nearly $300,000 loss.
It's hard to wrap your head around such a significant price decrease, especially when you consider that the home is literally across the street from the beach. That said, it's not directly on the beach, this part of Waialua tends to be lower-priced than other North Shore neighborhoods and the market on the whole has been on the decline: According to the Honolulu Board of Realtors' November Local Market Update (the most recently available data), in 2009, the average sales price of single-family homes on North Shore was $921,957. As of November 2010, the average sales price was $735,730, a decrease of about 20 percent.
But, as the listing says, "sellers' loss, buyers' gain!" The three-bedroom, three-bath house has direct ocean views, though when the owner of the vacant land across the street finally builds on it, those vistas will be significantly limited. The house, which is part of a CPR (fees are $125 per month), is on a corner lot and has two ocean-facing lanai. There's just over 1,700-sq.-ft. of livable area, which is a comfortable size, though there's virtually no yard space. Inside, the light-filled spaces are nice and neutral, with the exception of the master bath, which was painted a bright blue. The home has a large carport in lieu of an enclosed garage.
The home is subject to "HAP approval," meaning it's being sold through the Homeowners Assistance Program (HAP), which is administered by the U.S. Army Corps. of Engineers, and helps eligible service members and federal civilian employees sell homes with upside-down mortgages.

Watch Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love Sing Together
Footage of Nirvana legend Kurt Cobain singing with his wife Courtney Love has made its way on the Internet. Grunge's first couple can be seen in a never-before-released duet called 'Stinking of You' which you can watch below.
The video comes from 'Hit So Hard,' the documentary about Hole drummer Patty Schemel's battle with drug addiction and coping with rock fame. It also reflects on the Seattle music scene explosion in the 90′s.
It's not technically a full song as the clip is barely a minute long. However, watching Kurt and Courtney's playful banter is a nice change of pace considering most news about the Hole frontwoman isn't too flattering (like accusing the Muppets of raping her husband's legacy). Love casually strums along on an acoustic guitar while Cobain later joins her on the tune.
Home video of the couple spending time with their daughter Frances Bean Cobain is thrown in, along with a cameo from Foo Fighters' Pat Smear among others. The Cobains seem to be having a genuinely good time together. It's almost heartbreaking to watch considering the events that were to come shortly after that video was shot.
Enjoy this moment while it lasts, as Love will more than likely say something crazy about Foo Fighters leader and former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl soon. Hopefully she checks her facts before going on another Twitter rant.

Learning vs Staying in the Original Languages
I remember diligently studying Greek paradigms one day in seminary when I asked my professor, "Is this how we're going to be studying Greek after we graduate?" He just laughed and said, "Nah, you'll be using Bible software."
How true.
In reflecting on his words, I've also noticed an interesting trend now that I've been out of seminary for a few years. Many of my friends and colleagues who bought Bible software in seminary are still using it to access the original languages today as pastors and ministry leaders. Granted, they may not be masterful scholars, but they are engaging the original languages on some level. In contrast, most of my friends who forwent Bible software in seminary haven't touched their hardbound Nestle-Aland 27 or BHS since graduating. I'm not saying this is a hard and fast rule, but I've noticed the trend among my own peers.
This begs the question...why do the Greek and Hebrew retention rates seem to be higher among those who use Bible software? There may be several factors, but I have a strong suspicion that most of it boils down to convenience. There is a direct correlation between motivation and convenience, so while highly motivated individuals will tolerate inconvenience, less motivated individuals will require greater convenience to accomplish the same task. This brings us to the crux of the problem: while it's not something we want to admit to our Greek professors, most of us experience a decline in motivation to study the original languages once we graduate. That's not to say we have zero motivation, but it does mean that most of us need something more convenient than reviewing paradigm charts, otherwise we won't bother.
I suspect this is why my friends who use Bible software continue to stay in the original languages. Programs like Accordance make studying the original languages convenient, and sometimes all but automatic. For example, it only takes a few seconds to add a parallel Greek or Hebrew text to any Accordance workspace. Even if you ignore the Greek and Hebrew panes 99% of the time, you can always leave them up, just in case. When the scholarly urge does strike, you can get a definition, parsing information, and cross-highlighting just by hovering over a Greek or Hebrew word.
Of course, there are plenty of advanced features in Accordance that take more time to learn and master, but if your primary goal is to stay connected to the original languages, it really doesn't take much. It's actually kind of ridiculous how convenient this all is when you consider what similar endeavors required just a few decades ago.
I'm curious to know what you think. Have you noticed the same trend among your friends and colleagues who did/didn't invest in Bible software? Has Accordance helped you stay connected to Greek and Hebrew after graduating seminary or Bible college? Post your thoughts in the comments.
Archived Comments
Drew Brown
100% agreed - I had a concentration in Biblical Languages in seminary, and even I find Bible software more conducive to keeping the Greek and Hebrew fresh.
I've even found a shortcut to turn Accordance into a "readers" Bible for Hebrew or Greek students. This is especially helpful for Hebrew studies, as the vocabulary is astronomically high compared to the GNT. Here it goes:
Say you only know the Hebrew words that occur more than 100x. You want to stay in the Hebrew text and read it, but are discouraged by the sheer number of words you don't know. Enter this formula into the search bar: [COUNT 1-100] <AND> [RANGE ____]. Enter in any OT book after RANGE.
Accordance will now hit all of the Hebrew words that you shouldn't know. What's helpful about this is that it won't show you what the words mean, so you can still sight read and learn new vocabulary without feeling like you're cheating yourself.
In this way, the value of Accordance is amplified [Pun intended!]. No need to buy a Reader's Greek or Hebrew Bible, and it's fully customizable to your own vocabulary needs.
One other thing - textual criticism is also easier with Accordance. Although you still need to be aware of textual critcism principles [as you still need to know grammar with the languages to prevent fallacious reasoning], because you can hover over the MSS and instantly know what abbreviations are, you're that much more encouraged to use it.
Drew Brown
One more thing...
Follow the steps described above, and if you want the results to be permanent, create a new user highlight style for Greek and Hebrew. Then, run your search, open the highlights window, and hold shift while you click your highlight style. Bingo - all of the unfamiliar vocab is automatically highlighted each time you open your text.
Bryan Catherman
I couldn't agree more. My Hebrew prof was always saying "Time is everything," encouraging those of us headed into the pastorate to find good habits that would still allows us the time to do the work demanded by our calling. I took the tools path after learning that many pastors hardly end up using the hours and hours of language class shortly after finishing seminary. It's tough to find time to keep sharp with the languages but Accordance allows me to say in it through practical application and ease of use. And surprisingly, by having the basic tools and Accordance, I've been able to stay in the languages more and have found a growing motivation to dig in deeper on my own. There's very little chance that would have happened without Bible software (because the Greek and Hebrew Bibles would have never left the shelf).
Josh Ketchum
I completely agree too and know it is true with myself. I think the future should involve two tracts for students. One with the traditional method of language learning used for those who wish to go to PH.D work and need to know the languages well. A second for those who need to use it in preaching and teaching. This second tract should teach the languages with Bible software, so that students learn how to use the languages and don't just have to spend all the time memorizing it. Then it will actually be used instead of forgotten when graduating.
I think schools should move in this direction.

Greg E. Mathieson, Sr. / (C) 2012 Greg E. Mathieson Sr. /
A flying HUMMVEE is just one of many projects in development by the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. It is featured in a chapter on the "Future of U.S. Naval Special Warfare" in a new book on the Navy SEALs by Greg Mathieson.
MIAMI – Since the U.S. Navy began its special Sea, Air, Land Teams, commonly known as the U.S. Navy SEALs, in 1962, little about them has been made public.
That was on purpose.
"Most of us who were career SEALs had the sense we didn't need publicity," said Jack Saunders, who was a U.S. Navy SEAL from 1965 to 1986.
Greg E. Mathieson, Sr. / (C) 2012 Greg E. Mathieson Sr. /
"Sleeping Beauty" submersible canoes being launched by OSS (Office of Strategic Services) Maritime Unit personnel, the forefathers of today's CIA and Navy SEAL Teams. Here the mini submersible is launched during training operations in the Pacific Theater during the 1940's.
To this day, those who were there at the beginning wish the SEALs were still a secret.
But since the raid on Osama bin Laden almost two years ago on May 2, 2011, interest in the secrets of the SEALs has only grown.
For photographer Greg Mathieson, the timing could not be better.
Mathieson has spent the last six years photographing and researching the SEALs.
He recently published a definitive book on the SEALS with David Gatley titled, "United States Naval Special Warfare/U.S. Navy SEALs."
Greg E. Mathieson, Sr. / (C) 2012 Greg E. Mathieson Sr. /
Special Warfare Combatant-craft Crewman (SWCC) move though rivers at a high rate of speed in specially designed Riverine boats which are outfitted with heavy weapons and mini-guns capable of firing 2,000-6,000 rounds a minute.
This is not an outsider's peek inside the SEALs. Rather, Mathieson was given unique access to the inner workings of the secretive group because the Navy blessed his project.
President George W. Bush wrote an opening tribute for the book and former secretaries of the Navy John Lehman and Donald Winter contributed as well.
"No one has ever done a book like this on the SEALs before," Mathieson said; previously reporters were only given access to training. "Until now, no one has ever been allowed to go with them on submarines, to Iraq with them in a hot zone, to Afghanistan.
Greg E. Mathieson, Sr. / (C) 2012 Greg E. Mathieson Sr. /
Navy SEALs undergo a lot of water training – including a program known as "drown proofing." In this part of training, students have their hands tied behind their backs and descend to the bottom of the pool to recover their face mask with in their teeth.
"I was able to go into their arms rooms. I saw all their toys. It's like I walked into Q's lab in a James Bond movie."
Mathieson added that he wanted to clear up some of the SEALs' lone-wolf misconceptions.
"For every SEAL in the field, there are 20 support people -– including women. I don't think people understand that."
The book has been a long time in the making.
"I tried to start this [project] 30 years ago when I was in Honduras and I met a SEAL. I wrote a letter to Adm. George Worthington back then and was denied complete access. Fast forward and Adm. Worthington had retired, but we had stayed in touch. He opened doors because he saw this was a story that really should be told and with that, I had access."
Much of the material Mathieson has uncovered was, at one time, classified intelligence.
Greg E. Mathieson, Sr. / (C) 2012 Greg E. Mathieson Sr. /
Boxes of secret documents on the establishment and operations of the U.S. Navy SEALs had remained unopened and classified for some 50 years, until they were declassified for the book.
The book uncovers and details a plan, $20 million in the making so far, for a flying HUMMVEE that will allow SEALs to hover in a war zone and use that position to surprise the enemy. It is part of a U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency project that is still in development.
Mathieson used the Freedom of Information Act to uncover old secrets -- and with Worthington's help, he knew what questions to ask.
"When I got the documents declassified on the SEALs from 1961 to 1962, I found that the U.S. Military was creating all sorts of devices.
"The most amazing was the SADM, Strategic Atomic Demolition Munition. This was a 160-pound atomic bomb that was the size of a basketball. It had an underwater casing that SEALs would tie to their chest, jump out of planes and then place wherever ordered. Think about it, this was long before micro-circuitry and the advances we take for granted today. It existed, but the SADM was never used."
Greg E. Mathieson, Sr. / (C) 2012 Greg E. Mathieson Sr. /
Department of Defense Combat Correspondents during Desert Storm aboard the USS Curtz with SEAL Team 5 and helicopters of the 160th Night Stalkers. Greg Mathieson is seen with the tan shirt and a camera around his neck. NBC News Correspondent Kerry Sanders is seen in the blue striped shirt.
By way of full disclosure, I've known Mathieson since the Gulf War began in 1990 to remove Saddam Hussein's Iraqi troops from Kuwait. We met when we were working as Defense Department Combat Correspondents aboard the USS Curtz with SEAL Team 5 and helicopters of the 160th Night Stalkers.
Each night the SEALs would climb on a "little bird," a helicopter that sounded no louder than a electric lawn mower. The SEALs would land in Kuwait, place laser tags at strategic locations and then leave. Those laser tags were then used to guide missiles to their targets.
Matheison explained that introduction to the SEALs piqued his interest.
Greg E. Mathieson, Sr. / (C) 2012 Greg E. Mathieson Sr. /
U.S. Naval Special Warfare Combatant-crew Crewman fires a 50 caliber machine gun from a Riverine boat in the darkness of night as seen through night vision goggles at a classified training location.
"I would run into SEALs everywhere I went, but no one really knew what they did. There are only 2,400 SEALs today. Back then, it was even smaller. I just wanted to know more. These guys make James Bond look like a wimp. Who wouldn't want to know more?"
SEALs say little and share little, but somehow after decades of contact, the SEALs let Mathieson into their inner circle. Now he's produced some of the most compelling images of their work that were secret -- until now.
Who will want to read and see this book?
"People who want to know about our greatest warriors," said Mathieson. "What everyone does know is the SEALs are the guys who took down Osama bin Laden." But he added, "These guys do so much that no one knows about. Now we get a look at them and their weapons.
Greg E. Mathieson, Sr. / (C) 2012 Greg E. Mathieson Sr. /

FPG, Eh?
Some time ago, my friends at Xilinx sent me a ZedBoard to evaluate. This board has a dual core ARM processor on it along with a lot of interesting peripherals. However, the big attraction is that the processor also has FPGA onboard and an integrated suite of software to let you combine software with IP cores to build various functions.
The specs are impressive: A dual core Cortex A9 CPU that can run at 1GHZ. 512MB of DDR3 RAM, 256 Mb of flash, gigabit networking, a USB host port and a USB serial port for a console. There's even a tiny OLED display along with provisions for driving VGA or HDMI and a capable audio codec.
Of course, that FPGA fabric eats a bit of power. The power brick on this board is quite hefty. A prepopulated SDCARD has a small Linux image on it and — once you figure out which connector is the USB serial port — it boots right up to a prompt.
There are Linux devices for many of the onboard resources. For example, the
write_led command will set a decimal number on the discrete LEDs. If you dump the script, you can see that like many Linux systems, it exposes the LEDs as a gpio device:
#!/bin/sh value=$(($1)); if [ $value -ge 0 ]; then for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7; do led=$(($i+61)); echo $(($value&0x01)) > /sys/class/gpio/gpio$led/value; value=$(($value/2)); done; fi;
Of course, that's not the attraction. The real power would be using the FPGA to build exotic DSP functions, PWM generators, and similar hardware I/O devices.
Unfortunately, I'm not there yet. I did get the Xilinx Vivado suite loaded on my 64-bit Linux workstation. It did take two tries to download and bypass the horrible Java download manager that kept trying to help me, but I did get it running.
What I couldn't do was get the Digilent USB to JTAG cable working. Oddly, I've made it work before (and perhaps that's why it won't work now), but I have tried a lot of gyrations to make it work. The system sees the device (using lsusb) but the Digilent software simply won't find the cable. There are no useful error messages either, so it promises to be a tough problem to debug. The other alternative is to connect the board to my real Xilinx USB cable (not that it sometimes isn't finicky under Linux). Unfortunately, that's going to take some cable adapters that I don't have, but that may wind up being my best option.
I've complained before about the sad state of Linux support for developer tools, so I won't belabor it again. It does seem funny that a board that boots up out of the box in Linux has problems supporting a Linux host. I have a feeling that once I get it all installed and working, it will be great, but for now I can only imagine.
I've said in the past that some people use FPGAs as sophisticated I/O devices for an onboard or external CPU. This seems to be the natural evolution of that idea. I'd promise to tell you more next time, but you may have to wait for me to get the tools running, so I'll just promise to continue the story sometime soon.

The International Mother Earth Day was commemorated 22 April worldwide and for the third time as an official UN Day. In 2009, the UN General Assembly proclaimed 22 April as International Mother Earth Day, expressing its conviction that, to achieve a just balance among the economic, social and environmental needs of present and future generations, "it is necessary to promote harmony with nature and the Earth."
Pointing to the upcoming UN Conference on Sustainable Development, also known as (Rio+20), taking place in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in June, Mr. Ban said that the event offers a timely chance for a much-needed paradigm shift.
"In the next twenty years, the world will need at least 50 per cent more food, 45 per cent more energy, 30 per cent more water and many millions of new jobs," Mr. Ban said. "Our challenge at Rio+20 and beyond is to take a holistic, integrated approach to these linked challenges – driving at the interrelations such that solutions to one problem translate into progress on all."
In a joint message for International Mother Earth Day, the Executive Directors of the World Food Programme (WFP) and UN Women, Ertharin Cousin and Michelle Bachelet, respectively, dedicated the Day to "the young girls who spend a full day in search of firewood, to the mothers who sell food rations to buy fuel for their family, and to the countless women who are forced to skip meals because wood is not available or unaffordable to cook their food."
They noted that far too many refugees and women living in drought conditions are forced to walk into the bush to collect firewood, venturing into unsafe areas and are left vulnerable to rape and other attacks. In addition, they chop down trees and uproot grasses, harming the fragile eco-system.
"Wood fuel consumption for cooking and basic household needs has become a major contributor to rapid deforestation and environmental degradation. Stripping land jeopardizes agriculture and contributes to the loss of valuable carbon sinks," Ms. Cousins and Ms. Bachelet said. "And indoor air pollution from burning solid fuel is one of the top ten global health risks according to the World Health Organization."

Amidst horror films like The Apparition, The Possession and The Tall Man that are currently in theaters, director Scott Derrickson (The Exorcism of Emily Rose) must wait until October 5th to unleash Sinister. His take on the found-footage sub-genre centers on a true-crime novelist (Ethan Hawke) who discovers that his new house played host to vicious murders and supernatural entities still haunt the walls. If you'd like to bring a screening of Sinister to your town before its October 5th release, check out the details here. For now, we have ten new images to share with you that should satisfy your need to be creeped the hell out.

Just because you are out of town doesn't mean you have to make excuses for not being able to exercise. Whether it is 10 minutes or an 60 minutes, it is great to plan ahead to make sure you continue to meet your fitness needs while traveling!
Have a great weekend!

Pablo Sandoval doubled home the go-ahead run with two outs in the ninth inning, as the San Francisco Giants rallied to beat the New York Mets 4-3 Monday afternoon at Citi Field.
Sandoval finished 3-for-5 with three RBI for the Giants, who captured three of four in this set. Hunter Pence added a pair of hits and scored twice and Joe Panik had three hits for San Francisco, which has won four of five overall.
Daniel Murphy hit a two-run homer and Juan Lagares had three hits for the Mets, who have lost four of six.
After trailing 2-0 and 3-2 earlier in the game, the Giants took the lead for the first time in the game during their last at-bat. With two outs and the game tied 3-3, Gregor Blanco began the rally with a two-out base hit. After New York reliever Jenrry Mejia walked Buster Posey, Sandoval's flare down the left-field line bounced out of play for a ground-rule double, plating Blanco with the go-ahead run.
Brandon Belt grounded out to end the inning and strand runners on second and third, but the damage was done. Santiago Casilla came on for the ninth and set the side down in order to earn his ninth save of the season.
Sergio Romo (5-3) got the win, tossing one inning of relief.
Mejia (5-4) suffered the loss, surrendering one run on two hits with a walk and a strikeout in one inning of work.
The Mets got going in the first when Murphy hit a two-run homer off San Francisco starter Tim Hudson, but the Giants answered in the third when Sandoval's two-run double off New York starter Dillon Gee tied the game.
Murphy scored the go-ahead run on a David Wright infield single in the fifth. However, the Giants answered in the seventh against reliever Jeurys Familia. Pence started the inning with a triple and later scored on a wild pitch by the Mets' right-hander.
New York escaped further damage in the frame when Lagares cut down Blanco at the plate trying to score on a Sandoval single for the first out and reliever Josh Edgin got out of the frame by inducing an inning-ending double play.
Hudson received a no-decision, allowing three runs -- two earned -- on seven hits in five innings. The right-hander struck out two and walked two. He was making his first appearance at Citi Field since suffering broken ankle at the venue last season.
Gee also avoided a decision. He was charged with two runs on five hits in 5 2/3 innings. He struck out six and walked three.

The event debuted in October 1966 as a Community Ox Roast, held in conjunction with the Hope College centennial celebration.

Lady Flames slip to 4-4-3 with narrow loss at Northeastern
November 3, 2013 | Lynchburg, Va.
Sometimes in hockey, no matter how dominating a team may be on the stat sheet, the final score doesn't reflect it.
Such was the case for Liberty University's ACHA Division I women's hockey team Sunday morning in its rematch with Northeastern University at Matthews Arena in downtown Boston.
The Lady Flames (4-4-3) outshot the Huskies (7-1-1) by a 49-22 margin but wound up on the short side of a 3-2 decision.
"We outplayed them, we outshot them and we couldn't get in the back of the net," Liberty Head Coach Paul Bloomfield said as the team drove through a downtown tunnel under Boston Harbor, embarking on a 12-hour road trip back to Lynchburg. "The goals we got were just from hard work. We got two in but should have had four or five."
In fact, the more Liberty outshot Northeastern throughout the game, the worse things got for the Lady Flames.
The two teams finished the first period tied at 1-1 when Liberty held a narrow 11-9 edge in shots. The Lade Flames outshot the Huskies 20-7 in a scoreless second period and were outscored 2-1 in the third, when they held a commanding 18-6 shot advantage on its hosts.
"We pounded their goalie and couldn't get it in," said Bloomfield, who had a squad of 14 players after senior forward Laura Del Monte flew to Boston to rejoin the team on Saturday. "We had three full lines today which helped us. It's just we've got to figure out, when one girl goes to the net, we've got to have a second one go for the rebound to capitalize. We're getting to the net, it's just frustrating not to be able to finish."
Del Monte actually started the scoring less than three minutes after the opening faceoff, putting away a short feed from behind the net from Nikki McCombe, with fellow junior forward Jenny MacArthur recording the secondary assist.
The Huskies knotted it at 1-1 six minutes later before scoring the first two goals in the third at the 15:51 and 4:15 marks to seize a 3-1 lead.
"We outplayed them, but there were a couple times where we broke down and they capitalized," Bloomfield said. "A couple turnovers hurt us. They were working hard and were at the right place at the right times."
In the final minute and a half, Bloomfield pulled junior goalie Sam Rupp to set up a six-on-five advantage and junior forward Amanda Grainger scored the game's final goal off an assist from Sarah Stevenson with 12 seconds remaining in regulation.
Unlike in Friday night's game, when the Lady Flames were whistled for seven penalties, including two in the final two and a half minutes that allowed the Huskies to rally from a 3-1 deficit to forge a tie with two power-play goals, Liberty was only called for three penalties Sunday.
Northeastern, the 2012 ACHA DI national champion, defeated Rhode Island on Saturday night, 2-1, while Liberty had the day off.
"We should have had the advantage on them since they played last night, too," Bloomfield said. "They're not an exceptionally strong team, not as strong as Robert Morris (Illinois, which Liberty split two games with two weekends ago). We really needed both of these games this weekend. It was discouraging because we definitely outplayed them, but couldn't get it done."
The Lady Flames, who host Northeastern on Jan. 31 and Feb. 1, return to action at the LaHaye Ice Center Nov. 14-15 against the same Reston Raiders U-19 team it swept last weekend. Then, they'll embark on another 12-hour bus ride to New England for a four-game road trip to meet Rhode Island Nov. 22-23 and the University of Massachusetts Nov. 25-26.
Bloomfield expects both teams will be in the ACHA DI top 10 when the first national ranking is released Nov. 23.

Aol Alto: You've Got a New Spin on Webmail
Aol breaks from the past with a new web-based e-mail app.
Oct. 18, 2012 -- "You've got mail!"
Ah, the words that so many of us associate with our first email accounts -- our Aol email accounts.
Of course, for most people on the Internet it has been ages since we actually heard that chime or associated Aol with modern-day email. While it was reported last year that a large percentage of Aol's profits still come from people who use Aol.com's webmail service, many have moved to newer webmail options (e.g. Gmail, Yahoo, or Apple's iCloud).
But today Aol is hoping those who haven't used Aol email in a decade will start again today. Its newest mail service is called Alto.
"Aol has been in the business a long time and has a lot of insights to do something more than what the other services are doing now," David Temkin, Senior Vice President of Mail for Aol, told ABC News in an interview. Temkin even joked about the connotation that Aol mail has these days: "We didn't want to alienate our current audience of Aol.com mail users. Even Gmail, though it launched in 2004, they too have gotten to a point where they are a legacy product," Temkin said.
So Aol decided to start from scratch. Alto isn't a new site to get a new email address, it's a site, Temkin says, that will help solve the "issues we all have with email now."
With Alto, which will be located at altomail.com, you can log in to your current Gmail, Yahoo, iCloud, or Aol email address and it will function like a web mail app, just like the one on your smartphone. Once you log in to your existing account, your email from it is ingested by Alto. There's not even an option to sign up for an @alto.com address.
But why use Alto over Gmail.com or Yahoo.com? Aol is hoping you'll switch over for a slew of new features it has built to better organize your inbox. The Alto interface is clean and shows two panes. On the left is your inbox and on the right are what Aol calls stacks. In those stacks, you can group emails according to their content.
For instance, you can set it up so all your notifications from Facebook or Twitter go into a "social stack." Or you can have all your email newsletters from retailers like J.Crew and Macy's go into the "retail stack."
There's even an automatic stack for your "attachments," so you can view all your photos or documents in one area without having to dig through your inbox. You can browse your photos like a gallery. The stacks feature is similar to what Microsoft introduced a few months ago with Outlook.com; both services offer to organize your inbox automatically so you don't have to do the constant deleting and sifting that takes so much time for email users.
But the company says there will be more than stacks to set Alto apart. Aol has improved the speed of its inbox search; it almost instantaneously brings up messages with the word or a contact you might be looking for. Additionally it has integrated social features, so when you look up a contact you can see their Twitter and Facebook information.
But for all the really attractive and useful features, there are some key ones missing in Alto. There are no threaded messages, a feature that groups your messages by conversation in your inbox. (You can see a threaded view of a particular email chain once you open the email, but it doesn't gather them together in the inbox.) That's one of the features that makes using Gmail.com and the others so appealing for many.
There's also no Gmail chat function integrated, at least not in the "limited preview" beta period. Aol says those features are coming and that the team wanted to focus on the "core email experience" for now.
Of course, like the other webmail services, Aol plans to make some money off of the service. While there will be a base free offering, Aol says it is exploring a paid service option for aggregation of more than two accounts and other premium services. It says there won't be typical display advertising as there is in Gmail, but it might place advertisements at some point around your retail stack.
If it sounds appealing or you're just getting sick of your current email interface, it might be worth a try. You can sign up today for an invite to Alto Mail at altomail.com. Oh -- and no, you won't get the "You've got mail!" chime when you sign in.

When an Akron, Ohio, mother was treated with disrespect by her daughter, she decided to teach the 13-year-old a lesson by publicly punishing her on Facebook.
Denise Abbott swapped out her daughter Ava's Facebook profile photo for an image of the teen with an "X" over her mouth and the caption, "I do not know how to keep my [mouth shut]. I am no longer allowed on Facebook or my phone. Please ask why, my mom says I have to answer everyone that asks."
Abbott says she was driven to do this after her daughter was rude and talked back to her in front of three of her friends.
"I was trying to think of something that would impact her so she would know what it felt like to be embarrassed in front of people," Abbott said on the Today Show. "I think you need to have empathy to understand the situation."
(Story continues below video.)
Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy
Public shaming is the latest parenting trend. In the past couple months several stories of parents embarrassing their kids in public have appeared in the news. In April in Swansea, Illinois, Montrail White forced his 8-year-old daughter, Melissa, to stand outside High Mount School wearing a sandwich board sign reading "I like to steal from others and lie about it!!" Montrail came up with the punishment because his daughter was stealing at home and took Halloween rings from a teacher at school.
That same month in Miami, Tarvon Young, a fifth grade student stood outside Richard Allen Leadership Academy holding a sign that read "I was sent to school to get an education. Not to be a bully… I was not raised this way!" Also, in Miami, a seventh grader was forced to stand outside holding a sign after he received three Fs on his report card in March.
(And these are only a few examples. You'll find more in the slide show below.)
All of these incidents bring up the question, Is public humiliation an effective form of punishment for children?
Parenting expert Dr. Janet Taylor doesn't think so. "Just as we don't want our kids to embarrass other kids, as parents we don't want to embarrass our kids," Dr. Taylor, a clinical psychiatrist, commented on Denise Abbott's modern discipline approach on the Today Show.
In Swansea, Illinois, Nancy L. Perry, a social worker who counsels children and parents, seems to agree. When the Belleville News Democrat asked her about the Melissa Montrail incident, she said, "There is a possibility that the girl may have been psychologically harmed by being held up publicly by her father and labeled a thief and a liar."
But Ava Abbott feels that her mother's public disciplinary approach on Facebook was fair. Ava wrote in a letter, "It's not embarrassing to me at all…It was my mom's way of grounding me and it's like any other grounding."
What do you think? Should parents use public humiliation as a way to discipline kids?

Free Spirit: Into the Sandbox
JPL engineers drove a test rover into a specially prepared sandbox where it became embedded, simulating Spirit's situation on Mars.
Transcript:Speaker Title: John Callas, Project Manager, Mars Exploration Rovers John Callas: This is John Callas at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory with your Free Spirit update. What we did is to take our engineering test rover and drive it up into the new sandbox and then get it stuck, or embedded, just like Spirit is on Mars. And this involves maneuvering the rover around, driving the wheels to where the rover would sink in, and, and slide to the side downslope, much like we think Spirit is currently situated on Mars. What we want to be able to do is to experiment with different extraction techniques down here on Earth before we actually do them for real up on Mars. Our expectation is that it'll take some time to get Spirit out. And so we'll be able to get a better feel for that here with this facility as we explore these techniques and we see not only how well they work, but how long it will take for them to work. This is John Callas at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory with your Free Spirit update.

Steven Havens
Program: Music
Steven Havens, who began playing the piano at 4 and at age 8 launched formal piano training at Mount St. Claire College in Clinton, Iowa, felt that teaching was OK for other people but was not right for him.
That is, until he began his college career as a music major. Havens observed his instructor fine-tune both the art of music and the art of teaching, "and both kind of came together for me. It was absolutely amazing."
The bulk of Havens' work at COD is in studio piano, one-on-one. He also teaches group piano and has taught music appreciation. Moreover, he served as a piano accompanist for the DuPage Chorale on tour and performed as soloist with the DuPage Chamber Orchestra and Concert Band.
"Teaching becomes a powerful thing when you work very hard at becoming the very best that you can be as a musician and then when you share that knowledge with students," Havens said.
Havens, who has taught at College of DuPage since 1990, gains satisfaction from the "shared enterprise" with his students: "two imaginations coming together to try to reveal the highest a musical composition might have to offer. It is really wonderful to share that and to work very hard myself to try to find what is going to click with each student. There are different expectations, different capacities and then to see it all come together is very rewarding.
"And you are able to say, 'Ahhh, that person got it.'"
Havens earned his bachelor's degree in Music from Western Illinois University, a master's in Music from the University of Texas and a Ph.D. in Music from the University of Iowa.
The secret to Havens' success is to first be the best musician he can be, and then to set about crafting a path for each of his students, starting from where each student happens to be.
"I have to diagnose my students' prior experiences, what their expectations are and their aptitude at the moment, and then I must try to find out what is going to make each student have a truly meaningful experience with music because, ultimately, I am out of the picture. All I can do is coach things into place and see what happens.
"I have to turn the lights on."

I've added the ability to add "source attachments" to jars on the "class path" or "build path" (not sure what to call that, Eclipse uses "build path," but RSTA isn't compiling anything, since it's just an editor…). You can now get Javadoc in the description window alongside code completion choices. In the example below, I'm editing java/lang/String.java, and I've attached the src.zip that comes with the JDK. You'll see that the Javadoc for the relevant String method is shown:
Beyond that, I've been working on the API, using RText as the test application.
Also, not the source outline tree on the left. I'm working on getting this component simple and usable as well. I'm tempted to shove it into the RSTALanguageSupport library, since it would only be used with RSTA instances using the library, but since it isn't specifically related to the editor, it may just end up in RText itself. It's really nice – it displays the outline of the source as parsed by the code completion parser, and clicking on an item in the tree jumps to that item in the source code. However, it is Java-specific and is not currently meant to be used for outlining just any language.

1 oz 2019 Leopold V | 825th Austrian Mint Anniversary Silver Coin
Order your 1 oz 2019 Leopold V 825th Austrian Mint Anniversary silver coin from our online store now, to be treated to the internet's most competitive price. This eye catching work of art commemorates the tale of the founding of the renowned Vienna Mint.
The reverse features the legendary Duke Leopold V of Austria, donning full regalia, with sword primed and banners flying in a high wind. The only inscription interrupting this dynamic and poignant effigy is the number '1194,' (A.D.) at the end of which year Leopold met his savage fate…after a fall from his steed, A solider then was forced to amputate his foot, which led to a nasty infection and Leopold's eventual death by gangrene.
The obverse is home to a portrait one of Leopold's own crusading party, shown in stylized relief, at arms atop his trusty mount. Also on the obverse, you'll find the Austrian legend, as well as the unique denominational value of the coin, its metal content, its weight and the year of its release.
The Vienna Mint was founded on the ransom, in silver, which was paid by the desperate people of England, in return for the release of their King, Richard 'The Lionheart,' whom Leopold had cunningly seen fit to hold hostage, after the two had had a heated meeting of tempers in 1191. Celebrate the riotous saga and intrigue upon which some of the world's greatest institutions were founded and diversify your portfolio with a 1 oz 2019 Leopold V 825th Austrian Mint Anniversary silver coin today!

- Pyrotechnics, overcrowding, poor exits have contributed to tragic fires in recent years
- You would think the world would have learned from past incidents, John Barylick says
- Concertgoers have to be their own fire marshals, he says
Editor's note: John Barylick, author of "Killer Show," a book on the 2003 Station nightclub fire in Rhode Island, is an attorney who represented victims in wrongful death and personal injury cases arising from the fire.
(CNN) -- Sunday morning we awoke to breaking news of another tragic nightclub fire, this time in Brazil. At last report the death toll exceeded 230.
This tragedy is not without precedent. Next month will mark the 10th anniversary of a similar nightclub fire in Rhode Island. At this sad time, it's appropriate to reflect on what we've learned from club fires -- and what we haven't.
Rhode Island's Station nightclub fire of 2003, in which 100 concertgoers lost their lives, began when fireworks set off by Great White, an 80s heavy metal band, ignited flammable packing foam on the club's walls.
Deadly blazes: Nightclub tragedies in recent history
John Barylick
Panicked patrons stampeded toward the club's main exit, and a fatal pileup ensued. Contributing to the tragedy were illegal use of pyrotechnics, overcrowding and a wall covering that would have failed even the most rudimentary flammability tests.
Video images of the Station fire were broadcast worldwide: A concert begins; the crowd's mood changes from merry, to curious, to concerned, to horrified -- in less than a minute. You'd think the world would have learned from it. You would be wrong.
The following year, the Republica Cromanon nightclub in Argentina went up in flames, killing 194 people. The club was made to hold about 1,000 people, but it was estimated that more than 3,000 fans were packed inside the night of the fire, which began when fans began lighting flares that caught the roof on fire.
Echoes of the past: Rhode Island victims 'can't help but watch'
Then, in January 2009, at least 64 New Year's revelers lost their lives in a nightclub in Bangkok, Thailand, after fire ignited its ceiling. Many were crushed in a rush to get out of the club. In December of that same year, a fire in a Russian nightclub, ignited by pyrotechnics, killed 156 people. Overcrowding, poor exits, and indoor fireworks all played roles in these tragedies; yet no one bothered to learn from mistakes of the past.
While responsibility for concert disasters unquestionably lies with venue operators, performers and promoters, ultimately, we, as patrons of clubs and concerts, can enhance our own safety by taking a few simple steps. The National Fire Protection Association urges concertgoers to:
• Be observant. Is the concert venue rundown or well-maintained? Does the staff look well-trained?
• As you proceed to your seat, observe how long the process takes. Could you reverse it in a hurry? Do you pass through pinch points? Is furniture in the way?
• Once seated, take note of the nearest exit. (In an emergency, most people try to exit by the door they entered, which is usually not the closest, and is always overcrowded.) Then, share the location of that nearest exit with your entire party. Agree that at the first sign of trouble, you will all proceed to it without delay.
• Once the show begins, remain vigilant. If you think there's a problem, LEAVE IMMEDIATELY. Do not stay to "get your money's worth" despite concerns about safety. Do not remain to locate that jacket or bag you placed somewhere. No concert is worth your life. Better to read about an incident the next day than be counted as one of its statistics.
Read more: How to protect yourself in a crowd
To be sure, all fire codes must be vigorously enforced, and club and concert hall operators must be held to the highest standards. A first step is banning indoor pyrotechnics in all but the largest, stadium-type venues.
But, ultimately, we are our own best "fire marshals" when it comes to avoiding, and escaping, dangerous situations. We can still enjoy shows. But it is up to us to look out for our own safety.
In coming days, Rhode Islanders will follow the unfolding news from Brazil with a sense of queasy deja vu -- the rising body counts, the victim identification process, the grieving families, and the assigning (and dodging) of blame. If only they had learned from our tragedy.
The opinions expressed in this commentary are solely those of John Barylick.

Hellow Toulan,
I thought about posting few pictures i took while i was doing damage tests.
Really it was an experience ~ bit of a cost but extremly fun, been doing while hunting card parts so i had to visit all mobs anyway )
Its been a bit of a brainstormer to try armors, tick which gets hit, deduce what damage is filtered and this on every mobs with every combinations of armor and plates i prepared.
Afterwoods i thought of doing
This section has no entry yet, so maybe it be a good place to share my occupations on Toulan.
I landed here and i think it has been comfirmed i was about to spend some time here.
Ill try to make a point on my past year in this post, and then i will carry on a normal rate, sharing my experiences in this blog.
First landing - as a propper noob.

It's been almost a week since disgruntled Goldman's employee Greg Smith penned his NYTimes op-ed on his former employer. The fallout continues. Multiple articles have appeared questioning the future of Wall Street. Have graduates lost interest in applying? Are current employees reconsidering career choices as they look at their shrunken bonus checks?
On the other hand, James Gorman CEO of Morgan Stanley told Fortune that when he spoke recently at Wharton Business School there were two overflow rooms of students eager to apply. He added that only two managing directors, out of a total of 1800, had resigned since shrunken bonuses were paid.
Who to believe?
Whatever the truth, this discussion is ALWAYS about compensation and nothing else. It's as if Wall Street's management is unable to find any other reason to work there. Stuck in a PR maze, management is unable to articulate compelling alternative incentives apart from financial remuneration.
The PR Verdict: "D" for Wall Street and its lack of creativity in generating compelling reasons to work there. No wonder the industry's image is stuck in a negative spiral.
By solely focusing on compensation there is little hope of changing the ongoing conversation. There are many careers that sing their praises on benefits and values which have nothing to do with compensation. Wall Street's HR departments and management committees might want to look to them for some much needed inspiration.
To read the article in Fortune click here. To read about how Wall Street is losing its appeal click here.
What's your PR verdict on how Wall Street sells itself as a career choice?
